[Mk2] [Generic] Buying an aerosol of Toyota Cosmos Blue to order..

[Torero]

I recall reading in the forums that there is a company that will do an aerosol of any automotive paint if you give them the paint code and then post it on to you.

I have done a search on here and can't find it, can anyone help me out.

Apologies mods if this is in the wrong section, feel free to move it

Its a company that operates on eBay ... let me see if I can dig out my old links - they were really good when I used them

[KarlBristol]

This is the one I used:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/TOYOTA-8H3-CO ... 45f37d00e5

I believe they do specific colours to order, and do touch up pots or aerosols
Colour match was good on the touch up pot I bought

There's a company called paints4u that I've used in the past. They will mix anything and the paint was good.

Any decent paint shop will do it . I use auto supplies , bolsover chesterfield . They can go off the paint code or if they are not sure what that is they use a magic camera and it takes a pic of your paint and matches it up .

Thanks Guys some great options there, much appreciated

@SynXero - Calum, do you happen to have the paint code? I know it's accessible from the frunk but the car is under cover for the winter and it's a pain to undo all the straps

I believe it is 943 dude.

I've been told many many different paint codes for it but that one comes up in various places with descriptions that sound correct, "deep purple blue" etc etc. sadly I can't check either as mine is in the garage until these supra brakes are done...

Thanks Karl just checking out the eBay link now but I need it in an aerosol. So I've just dropped these guys a note http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/car-aerosol-s ... 3cca398f78

I'll show you what I've bought when I've primed them but keeping it quiet for now so you don't get too envious.

[KarlBristol]

Ooohhh that sounds interesting. Im intrigued now
Something that Im going to have to start trying to source? Lol

[Torero]

LOL, quoted on your wish list no less.

Thats a very long list ... you may have to narrow it down a bit more

[ponchcore]

I have used paints4u in the past as well, and they were very good

OK, this breaker is about 45 minutes away from me, I saw the ad and something jumped out, see if you can tell what it is. All I can say is the item concerned is genuine. I know because I already have it/them

[KarlBristol]

DAMN YOU!!!!! My Ganador Mirrors

Do you mind me asking how much they cost you?
All that I have stumbled across so far are £2-300 units for people that obviously know what they are selling on eBay

[KarlBristol]

Just stumbled across the advert on eBay during this mornings searches
Would have bought them

[synXero]

Torero - check PM pronto!!
